OPEN CV (Open source computer vision)

OpenCV is released under a BSD license and hence it’s free for both academic and commercial use. It has C++, C, Python and Java interfaces and supports Windows, Linux, Mac OS, iOS and Android. OpenCV was designed for computational efficiency and with a strong focus on real-time applications. Written in optimized C/C++, the library can take advantage of multi-core processing. Adopted all around the world, OpenCV has more than 47 thousand people of user community and estimated number of downloads exceeding 5.5 million. Usage ranges from interactive art, to mines inspection, stitching maps on the web or through advanced robotics.

To get the source code, point your git client to git://code.opencv.org/opencv.git or to our public mirror git://github.com/itseez/opencv.git. Here is instruction.

If you need write credentials for OpenCV git repository, you should contact us via delete-admin@delete-opencv.org (get rid of the ”delete-” to make the emails work) and explain the situation.

The main OpenCV repository was transferred to git and is available by the following link git://code.opencv.org/opencv.git. Repository history now begins with famous “atomic bomb” commit, that dates back to May the 11th, 2010. The rest of the history plus matches between git commits and SVN revisions are stored at a separate OpenCV Attic repository: git://code.opencv.org/opencv_attic.git.
There is also a mirror of our repository on GitHub: https://github.com/itseez/opencv. We are going to organize the process of adopting pull requests a bit later.
Also OpenCV Extra was put to a separate repo: git://code.opencv.org/opencv_extra.git.
